#40845: Incomplete `get_the_modified_(date|time)` filter docs

--------------------------+-----------------------------
 Both `get_the_modified_date()` and `get_the_modified_time()` set the
 `$post` variable to the return value of `get_post()`. As noted in code
 comments within each function, `For backward compatibility, failures go
 through the filter below` (see [37866]). However, the "official" filter
 docs don't specify that `null` is a possible type for `$post`. The
 attached patch would amend the filter docs to include that note.
